+ Gallo outplayed Lamelo when Denver visited MSG for the first time since the trade.

Who the fukc cares about off the court? Melo just doesn't agree with Antoni. Doesn't mean he's bad in the locker room. I'll give you defense and a slight edge on effort. However, there were plenty of times when we were getting on Gallo for not playing defense.

Understand...people hear "off the court" as one of those bandied about media terms that's really hard to define and quantify if you're not actually there....with the players....off the court. So when I see that, I just dismiss it.

There is no reason for Melo to go. We are scoring enough points so offensive is not really a problem, as a team. The problem is defense, and this is something that can be worked on, probably not this reason, but it's doable.

Far far away from the orgy that consist of clyde, 8's, rady, smokes and rono

Yea Kinein, I had NBA TV on. Gallo was guarding the inbounder and had the AWARENESS to rotate and guard a slashing ZaZa to contest the shot for the win.

Gallo may not have Melo's talent, but he has more fortitude and I feel like Mel lacks that. He doesn't want to get invovled with anything besides scoring, if the ball isn't in his hands, he'll stop setting picks, cutting the basket, defender, just totally becomes invisible when he has all the talent to do these things, we saw Melo in the playoffs last year when he tried to put this team on his back, we saw STAT getting MVP consideration in the beginning of last year .... this is why we're not happy with these guys.

There were very high expectations for them, we gave up a lot of value and future for them and they haven't been leading the right cause.
